This must be some kind of accident. The Daily Maik, usually dividing things into those which give us or cure cancer appear to have allowed a well-written article slip through the net. to To wit:
My bullshit rader is pinging noisily. What’s the Fail’s agenda here? A nice bit of libertarian free speech? Singh is a foreign name but I suppose he’s one of those nice educated tax-paying ones. No, wait! Libel tourism!
As a result, an increasing number of foreigners have succeeded in using the English courts to launch defamation cases, even if they - or their claims - have little to do with this country.
Ah, furriners indeed. And oddly no comments. Weird. Also, check out the author’s other writings. A nice bunch of Sangatte and raping by foriegners. At least she seems to have slipped near sanity this time.

it’s obvious the mail is defending FREE SPEECH and its role in THE BRITISH WAY OF LIFE.
As for there being no comments, I believe the heads of the average Mail readers must be exploding after reading the article, what with the novel idea of writing something that’s not frothing at the mouth.

surely this sentance speaks volumes:
Via a succession of such rulings, the judge has built up a formidable body of case law upon which public figures can rely when they wish to gag newspapers or publishers.

Simon Singh is a cock. Pure and simple. Why people still read his rubbish is beyond me. He should stick to what he knows best – playing with numbers.
